Why?  Is there another fault that's damaged it? 

If it's a manufacturing defect, it should be covered under warranty.

It's always hard to guess the problem when your profile details are not for the car with the issue.

Ah, in that case it's not uncommon for the cat to clog up on the 1.0EB.

Low mileage means it's probably spent a lot of time in traffic rather than being driven on the motorway.
